Follow My vote was asked to write some content for a blog called TechDay News. TechDay is essentially a big science fair for startups. You can show off to investors, press and potential users. Follow My Vote attended their "DC Techday" last fall. We will be attending this year as well.

We featured BitShares as well as Peertracks in the article. The site gets close to 50,000 visitors a month.
